Motor
This motor includes a yoke, an armature, a brush holder and a ground member. The yoke has the shape of a bottomed cylinder that has an inner surface to which a magnet is affixed. The armature is contained within the yoke. The brush holder is arranged in an opening of the yoke, and holds a feed brush for supplying an electric current to the armature, and a bearing that axially supports a rotary shaft of the armature. The ground member is in contact with the bearing and the yoke. The ground member is affixed to a ground terminal that is held by the brush holder.
1. A motor comprising:
a yoke that is tubular and includes a closed bottom and an inner surface to which a magnet is fixed;
an armature accommodated in the yoke;
a brush holder arranged in an open portion of the yoke, the brush holder holding a power supplying brush that supplies current to the armature;
a bearing that rotatably supports a rotation shaft of the armature; and
a ground member that directly contacts the bearing and the yoke, wherein the ground member is interconnected and fixed to a ground terminal held by the brush holder.
2. The motor according to claim 1 , wherein the ground terminal is connected to a ground side terminal of a capacitor for eliminating electrical noise.
3. The motor according to claim 1 , wherein
the ground terminal includes a swaged portion,
the ground member includes a connection fastening hole, and
the ground member is fixed to the ground terminal by the swaged portion that is inserted through the connection fastening hole and the swaged portion is swaged.
4. The motor according to claim 1 , wherein the ground member includes
a plate-shaped axial shield that covers an axial end surface of the brush holder, and
a plate-shaped radial shield that covers a radial outer surface of the brush holder.
5. The motor according to claim 4 , wherein the radial shield includes a yoke contact piece pressed against the inner surface of the yoke when the brush holder is coupled to the yoke.
6. The motor according to claim 5 , wherein the yoke contact piece is inclined to extend radially outward in a direction opposite to a direction in which the yoke contact piece is inserted into the yoke.
7. The motor according to claim 4 , wherein
the axial shield includes a bearing contact piece pressed against the bearing, and
the bearing contact piece includes slits that are formed at two sides of the bearing contact piece.
8. The motor according to claim 4 , wherein
the brush holder includes a positioning projection on a surface opposed to the axial shield,
the axial shield includes a positioning hole, and
the axial shield is positioned and fastened to the brush holder by the positioning projection inserted through the positioning hole and the positioning projection is swaged.
9. The motor according to claim 4 , wherein
the brush holder includes a flange that extends radially outward to abut against the open portion of the yoke in an axial direction, and
the flange includes a through hole through which the radial shield extends.
